I tend to disagree with this view.  In general, while wired connections
may often be more persistent than wireless connections, that's not
necessarily always true.  It's certainly possible to move a system
between wired connections as well

I think that it makes more sense for the configuration of the two types
to be the same, anyway, just for consistency.  It's the same basic
problem that is being solved, and if the solution for wireless
interfaces is reasonably robust, it should work just fine for wired ones
as well.

IMHO, of course.
